view similar to Figure 3 rotatable disk in a diiiei'ent pothat shown inFigure 3.

to the drawings for more dehereof, my caiendar com- 5 to which issecured a circular above the surface of the 7 has a central circularaperture cut therein, this aperture being of very slightly largerdiameter than the disk 6. The back 5, the disk 6 central aperture in thedisk 7, is slotted diametrally to shdabiy receive an' disk 7 is placedon the protruding through the The disk 6 elongated indicator 9 having` atriangular shaped end 10 and provide at its other end with a raisedportion 11.

The indicator 9 of the disk 6 by across piece 12 secured to the disk 6. vThe rotatable disk 7 is mar kedwith the numerals 1 'to 31 inclusive, these numerals being arranged in acircle outside of the disk and concentrically therewith. numerals 1 to31 inclusive and therewith, the disk Outside of the concentricaily 7 ismarked With a series naines ot t i4, i925. serial No. 69,158.

Vhen the indicator 9 is pushed upwardly so that the portionthereof bearing the niark February hes over a portion of the circlehavnqj numerais in rked thereon, and the di d i is disposed so that thennmeral 1 lies just to the right o? the marl Feliruary, the triangularportion 10 of thc indicator Will point to Monday which is the davsucceeding the Sundebv of January 31st. The second. ciimle of daysbeginningv with successively marked with the i ie days oi the Week inthe order in which they occur. It Wiil be noted, lionover.y that thespaces marked u., b and o which are respectively opposite the nun'ierals28, 29 and 30 are ieft blank because no day shouid ite indicated for FeJruary 20, 30 and ieioiiday 3l in the year for which the calendar is tll) made up which happens to be the year 1926, a non-leap year. It ivillbe noted that F ebruary 28th is on a Sunday so that the third cii'cle ofdays begins with Monday, each succeeding space oi that circlebeing-marked with the naine of a week-day and the names following` intheir recognized sequence. A series of tivelve successive Icirclesformed by the names ot the days ot' the Week are thus Written on thedisk 7, Ahe method for which Will be readily apparent from the foregoingdescription.

It Will be noted that in the radial column D the space e is lett blankbecause there is no April 31st, and that the spaces y, g and h are alsoleit blank because there is no June 31, September 31 nor November 31,the triangular end 10 oit' the indicator 9 being at the space c, f, gand /1/ ivhen the numeral 31 is to the right ot April, June, Septemberand November respectively.

In Figures 3 and 4 it will be noted that my calendar may comprise aycover 15 which may be secured to the back 5. The cover 15 is providedwith a slot 16 Which is Wedge shape. The slot 16 is provided for thepui'- pose of exposing to view part of the pointer and a column markedWit-h days of the Week. A slot 1G is also cut to expose a numeral lyingto the right of the space marked with the naine ot a month on theindicator. The cover 15 is also provided With a slot 17 so that theindicator Which, as above mentioned, has a raised portion 11 at itslower end, may slide in its slot in the disk 6. The cover 15 is so cutat its bottom edge 18 that the disk 7 extends therebelovv as shown inFigures 3 and a, so that the disk may be grasped by the hand forturning.

Although I have shown and described one embodimentof my invention, it isto be understood that the saine is susceptible of various changes; and Ireserve the right to employ such as maycome Within the scope of theappended claims.
